Orbital rim/tear trough implants

Infra orbital rim implants are design to improve the projection of the orbital rims or to fill in the depression or irregularities of the suborbital area due to traumatic deformities or surgical defects. Tear trough deformities are more common , they are usuallytreated by fillers and coud be used at the time of rim implants, However I do not recommend using a combination of both implants in the same setting.
